Monterey field hockey players said, "We share the field, we bleed green and gold, and we love supporting a noble pursuit to bring awareness to ALS. MHS field hockey has called out Tom Newton and Monterey football!"

The Ice Bucket Challenge is a social media campaign that aims to raise awareness and money to fight Lou Gehrig's disease, also called amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, or ALS.

Pete Frates is the man who inspired the entire campaign. The former Boston College baseball player has been living with ALS since 2012. Frates' former teammates, as well as other Boston-area athletes, told Frates they were willing to do the challenge, and since then, it went viral as politicians, celebrities, athletes, and everyday folks have done the Ice Bucket Challenge.

And it's making a difference. On Thursday, the New York Times reported that the ALS Association had received $41 million in donations from July 29 to Aug. 21.

To do the Ice Bucket Challenge, dump a bucket of ice cold water over your head, then challenge a friend to either do the same, or donate money to the ALS Association.
